>I remeber when GE capital sponsored some "excellence" award thingie. But after I read that, I went to GE in Connecticut and met with some Technicians about a VFP app I had - the techs - VB heads - played hard to get - and were also allowed to say "no" before I moved up the procurement chain. 6 months later they were trying to learn a new programming language - VB was snuffed!
